Surely he is with us inside our hearts. The best ever pokerface actor and deadly with his wits. Only I can wish is that Rest In Peace.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02534703583281354998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210602.post-13629909373073786412010-11-30T22:13:55.725-06:002010-11-30T22:13:55.725-06:00Emm, I pretty much grew up watching Leslie Nielsen...Emm, I pretty much grew up watching Leslie Nielsen. I loved The Swamp Fox and he guest starred on a lot of shows when I was a kid. And, of course, I saw some of his movies like Forbidden Planet and Tammy & The Bachelor when very young!<br /><br />I remember that line, J., definitely one of his best!Terence Towles Canotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18397088843628331615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210602.post-71523085029163460482010-11-30T19:06:29.271-06:002010-11-30T19:06:29.271-06:00My favorite line of his was in one of the Naked Gu...My favorite line of his was in one of the Naked Gun movies.

I confess, Tammy & the Bachelor is my favorite of his performances. (Call me shallow, but he was extremely handsome as Pete.) Of course, I saw quite a bit of <i>The Swamp Fox</i> as a kid too. It's my dad's favorite!<br /><br />Leslie had a small role in the feature length pilot of <i>It Takes a Thief</i>, one of my very favorite shows. It's a nice comic bit as a baffled security guard that he did very well with.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
